A su valor y laboriosidad nuestro reconocimiento. [Followed by acknowledgments by the municipal mayor and mineralogical and geological associations]:
"The Zimapán natives have long been linked to the mining activity, ever since the epoch before Spain arrived. Many men faced the daily risk of living in the bowels of the earth, where many have been paradoxically lost. The courage and industriousness of these people are recognized."
